Appelbeignets (Dutch Apple Fritters)

Appelbeignets (Dutch Apple Fritters) are another sweet snack besides Oliebollen that are traditionally eaten in Holland on New Years Eve.

Apples are cored and sliced, dipped in cinnamon scented batter, deep-fried and dusted with more (and more..) cinnamon sugar. Family and friends gather together to warm up with these snacks of deep-fried goodness in the cold and freezing Dutch winter evening, while counting down to a brand New Year.
